USCRPLs Aftershock II becomes Highest and Fastest amateur rocket of . . . Aftershock II has officially become the highest and fastest amateur rocket of all time! Following its successful launch and recovery on October 20, 2024, data from the on-board avionics unit was collected and analyzed to reconstruct the rocket’s flight path After a thorough internal review, the
Nose cone shapes. What are the pros and cons? - Rocketry Forum In regards to drag, rounded nose cones (i e with an elliptical or paraboloidal profile) offer the lowest drag at subsonic speeds, while pointed (conical, or ogive) nose cones perform best at transsonic and supersonic speeds The nose cone shape won't affect the CG CP relationship all that much, in relation to other factors in the rocket's design (i e overall length, fin size and location

Selection of the appropriate fin and control system to stabilize a . . . For example, this will not be the desired result if the rocket comes out of the pad and after it spins around a bit and stabilizes the angle at which it rotates How can I determine the correct choice of canards for a rocket going 2 mach It is really difficult to guess how the canards selected with the created program control the rocket
Ideal Stability of a Rocket - Rocketry Forum The rocket will be moving faster before it leaves the end of the launch system and will have better aero stability when the launch lugs are no longer steering The reason for the fuzz on the maximum end of the stability margin is that, while "more" is usually better, too much stability means that your rocket will tend to weathercock if there is
Electronic Gyro Rocket Roll Stabilization System - Rocketry Forum Controlling a rocket in flight has much more rigorous requirements than controlling roll in the gentle breeze that that fan is providing Are the servos strong enough as well? How is the control algorithm tuned for an actual flight? Is this a unit that you plan to commercialize? Will you be posting a build log, software schematics? Click to
Best GPS tracking system? - Rocketry Forum Hello all, I am looking for advice on choosing a tracking solution for my rockets Up until now, I have relied on noise makers or bluetooth Tile trackers to assist in locating my rockets I am in the planning stages for my next HPR build, which will be pushing the envelope a bit more than my
Seeking Insights on Water Rocket Fins Optimization Hello Rocketry Enthusiasts! I hope this post finds you all soaring high in your rocketry adventures! I'm a high school student currently navigating through the fascinating world of water rocketry for my research paper My focus is on the optimization of water rocket fins in terms of their size
Rocket Fin Rules | Rocketry Forum - Model Rocketry Forums Does anybody have any Hard and Fast rules about what the shape and or size of a rocket's fins should be? In all my research, the only thing I've uncovered is that 4 fins provide greater stability, but 3 fins allow for decreased drag But what I'm really looking for is understanding how
Making a non-electronic homemade recovery parachute deployment system Two of my friends and I are making various homemade rocket engines for our school science fair (using a store bought model rocket body), and since the parachute systems for regular model rockets are part of the engine, we were wondering if anyone had any homemade parachute delivery systems, or an alternative recovery system
